Open netnut404 opened 1 year ago

it would be nice to be able to install the flatpak on mobile devices that use arm64 (like the librem5) ( I am trying the web app as a work around ) . When I attempt to install..

Hi @netnut404 and thank you for reporting this. Unfortunately, I cannot build the app for aarch64 until either https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/74929 or https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/5631 gets resolved. Thumbs up to those issues if you would like to help improve their visibility

Oh well the nice thing is that the first one gets resolved although I don't think the second one is being resolved anytime soon, infact it got locked so... :(

The first one gets resolved with the following comment:

I don't think we're considering supporting this currently.

At this point I think that the only available solution to resolve this issue in less than months/years is to use something like qemu

Crap I completely missed that, yeah I think so too.....

Apparently there are some ways of building it for ARM? https://wiki.loliot.net/docs/lang/flutter/engine/flutter-app-for-linux-arm64/ I have not test it, and it seems kinda janky :P so maybe you'd have to do a qemu unfortunately....

Almost there! Github announced that OSS projects will be able to use arm64 actions by the end of the year.
